Manette

This week in SSC:

Bridges (looks best on black)

We've had such stormy weather this week. I consider myself lucky to catch a little break from it all and get this shot of the Manette Bridge which is one of the few bridges in this area.

"The Manette Bridge is a steel truss bridge that spans the Port Washington Narrows in Bremerton, Washington, USA. It connects the community of Manette, Washington to downtown Bremerton. The Manette Bridge, which was first built in 1930, was listed as structurally deficient and functionally obsolete. In the Spring of 2010, a construction began on a replacement bridge. The new Manette Bridge opened Nov. 10, 2011."

...and for Sight and Sound (Who didn't see this one coming? ;)

Die Brücke ist schön geschwungen über diesem Wasser. Ich mag, dass Du die Pflanzen im Vordergrund einbezogen hast. Sie und die Wolken Rahmen die Brücke schön ein.

What a great point of view for this bridge, Karen! What, you didn't use "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" by Simon and Garfunkle?

6 years ago.

Karen's Place ^club has replied to HaarFager ^club

Thanks, Kenny. That song has been used several times in "Sight and Sound" so I thought I'd use this one. :)

Sehr schöne Brücke.
Den Song mag ich sehr, Art Garfunkel habe ich letztes Jahr live in Hannover erlebt.
Schönes Wochenende,

Danek, Uwe. Oh, that must have been fantastic. I can image his voice would be so perfect in concert.

A beautiful area and excellent capture, Karen. I think the stormy clouds add a lot of interest to the picture, too!

"Bridge of a troubled water" would suit too!

6 years ago.

Karen's Place ^club has replied to Xata ^club

Yes, it would have. Simon and Garfunkel had some nice "bridge" songs.

Roger Bennion ^club

Love the light and colour tones here. Beautiful light on the water. Ace composition and that is a great sky! I didn't immediately see this one coming :-) For a brief moment "Bridge Over Troubled Water" started playing in moi head :-) A classic live performance of "The 59th Street Bridge Song".

Thank you, Karen, for posting to Sight and Sound : Pictures & Music

6 years ago.

Karen's Place ^club has replied to Roger Bennion ^club

Thanks, Roger. Glad you enjoyed the live performance. Yes, "Bridge Over" would have worked but I think it's been used several times so I thought I'd give this one a chance. It's such a cute song. :)
